Adeeb: iHaven Project will begin this year

Minister of Tourism Ahmed Adeeb has said that the iHaven Project in Ihavandhippolhu Atoll, the northernmost atoll in the Maldives, will begin this year.

Adeeb made this remark while addressing the people of Haa Alifu Hoarafushi yesterday, after leading a tour of the region for a group of potential investors from Saudi Arabia.

Minister of Fisheries and Agriculture Dr Mohamed Shainee told Sun Online that a tour of the region was conducted on an aircraft for the group, which included the Saudi Arabian Minister of Transport.

President Abdulla Yameen said earlier that the iHaven Project would be the biggest project supported by the Special Economic Zones Act.

The six main components of the iHaven project are a transhipment port, a dockyard including bunkering services, shopping malls, a cruise hub and yacht marina, real estate development, and tourist resort development.
